[QUOTE="YBWV, post: 127207, member: 32335"] Hi. I believe your plan to take DHEA to increase E2 and potentially get a modest increase in FT by lowering SHBG is a good idea and well worth trying; it certainly worked for me. In my 30's my (natural) Labs were similar to those you have posted with the same net result; my decent level of TT was confounded by too high SHBG. I had mid-range DHEAS and found that 25mg per day (cheap o.t.c. product) quickly took me well above range. Reducing the dose to 12.5mg daily has kept me around top of the range. I was initially concerned that the DHEA might be suppressive, and thereby lower TT, but was prepared to "sacrifice" a small amount of TT. In the event there has been no noticeable suppression (subjectively or by Labs) and I have been supplementing with it for 20+ years. As an aside I also had mid-range DHT and have found that exogenously increasing it to top of range, and keeping it there, has worked well. Where I live (Morocco) Proviron is available o.t.c. I gather that it's not licenced in the US. Using DHEA and Proviron concurrently has, for me, increased FT and E2 which has allowed me to grow muscle (near impossible before, particularly in the upper body) and has not compromised my fertility. Before embarking on any regime that may modulate E2 and DHT it is important to get a baseline PSA and thereafter to pay attention to prostate health. Best of luck if you do try the DHEA and I hope you post the outcome as will be interested to see how you get on! [/QUOTE]
